Yak Riding

Yak Riding is another popular and exciting experience in Sikkim.

35 km from Gangtok and at an altitude of 12,310 ft is the ethereally
beautiful Tsomgo Lake. Colourfully decorated Yaks with woolen knitwear
over the horns and forehead and strings of bells around the necks are
ready to take you for a ride around the lake or go up the mountain. The
Tourism and Civil Aviation Department as well as private travel agencies on prior booking
also organizes Yak Rides in Dzongri, in West Sikkim, a popular trekking
point.
